I have been brought in to help with an E2K server that has been seriously neglected. The short of it is that large sums of mail had been kept in the individual mailboxes to the point of absurdity and the private DB reached the 16GB limit and the server stopped functioning.....so we had to have them delete a large sum of data. The mailboxes then showed about 6-7GB remaining however the actual size of the .edb was still about 15GB and .stm was another 5GB. I ran the eseutil against it which helped but I still have an .edb file that is over 11GB. Anyone know what is causing the 40% increase in the database size over what is acutally shown and what's the best way to clean that up. I obviously am going to have to educate them on a process to prevent this kind of build up.....however I need to clean up the mess and get everthing back to normal first. Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
